Riki Choysu was another of the NJPW legends. Even if Super 7 can sign some of these guys to produce as Japanese Wrestling legends Chono might be one of the easiest to sign. From what I heard Muto has been tougher to sign to licensing deals. i think chono is signed to FIGMA. as far as muta goes, sonny ono is basically his handler, and pulled a TON of shady business as far as muta being booked for janela's spring break this year, which, with the pandemic, didn't happen anyway. so, ono will screw muta over as far as his cut goes, poor bastard.....

Just noticed EE has series 1 NJPW figures slated to arrive in September Where as spamS and RSC has a more June/July time slot. Idk if EE ordered later in the game but I’m starting to worry for this line a little Well we learned at NYTF that New Japan had not done the final approvals on entrance attires and that's why the actual figures weren't there. So that plus the COVID probably pushed this back a couple extra months. EE and spamS have had them slated for september for a while, then spamS switched to quarter 2 2020, whatever the hell that is (april, may, june???). correct, they did not have final approval for the entrance gear on the figures, they also did not have approval for series 2, which they were hoping to reveal at the toy fair after.

Sadly it's all too common when someone big dies, not just in wrestling, of any fame. I'm just glad I was able to find the set for his figure. Saw the four only once, and I didn't hesitate to get them. Just always bugged me I never was able to find Mean Gene, and will probably never see Monsoon either. I have Finkel's BAF. I doubt I will ever get my hands on a Monsoon i purchased the BAF fink head as soon as the news was posted before scalping occured. RIP howard!!! (could cheap out and throw the head on a ricardo rodriguez, but will be out a classic mic. i got lucky with okerlund at retail, the damn day he died. i too want gorilla, but don't think i'll ever find him

this may be a bit long, but here's what i think some of the releases may end up doing: deonna purrazo: would fit in nicely with AEW or ROH womens division mike and maria: i could see them going to ROH first and reforming the kingdom, maybe AEW gallows and anderson: either NJPW or AEW EC3, drake, young: i could see them all back with impact, possibly EC3 eventually in AEW lio rush: definetly AEW in my honest opinion hawkins, ryder, slater: i couldn't even tell ya. i could see hawkins in ROH (hey, he's a decent hand) can't see them end up in AEW, but i'd assume some comedy fued with best friends rowan, primo, epico, rusev: primo and epico i see in puerto rico wrestling their dads promotion. rowan and rusev, i just don't know. all the agents i can see coming back Japanese promotions have been shut down for a month now and they don't know when they can put on shows again i'm making these assumptions for when this world wide pandemic is over with though. should have stated that

some of these people i feel bad for, some i can see turning up in AEW at some point (gallows, anderson, mike and maria specifically) and some just blow my mind to be honest (ryder, hawkins, rusev, deonna purazzo, logan). this is i think the worst cut i have ever seen, ALOT of talent gone. Won't be long until AJ Styles turns up at AEW if Gallows and Anderson get hired.. i don't see AJ ever leaving WWE. he has always been involved in something high profile one way or the other. just sad it took him so long to reach wwe.

AEW should get Deonna Purrazzo like NOW my thoughts exactly. her skill was almost unmatched in WWE, too bad all they did was job her out. huge fan of her.

that's pretty messed up son ron reece, the guy who played the yeti, is dead. that's like rob finstein trying to sell autos of wrestlers he forged after they passed away and getting called out for it. Reese is still alive oh crap, i totally got him confused with the guy who played "the wall". my bad, my bad.

What's wrong with Gerald Brisco? He’s Vince McMahon’s biggest ass kisser and he was for the Montreal Screwjob. He was trying to teach Shawn Michaels how to wrestle for real in case Bret tried to shoot on him. I doubt that would have worked. I hope it’s true what Bret Hart said in his book that Brisco cowered away from him when Bret threatened to punch him. Also Rick Rude supposedly beat up Brisco in that whole backstage melee. Oh and let me tell you why that heart attack waiting to happen Conrad is a carnie. At his starcast convention he had guys dressed as the ding dongs and the yeti. It wasn’t the real people that had those gimmicks and he was still expecting people to pay for their autograph and photo ops! Random people were dressed as The Ding Dongs and Yeti and it costed money for their autographs and photos! If that’s not carnie I don’t know what is! that's pretty messed up son ron reece, the guy who played the yeti, is dead. that's like rob finstein trying to sell autos of wrestlers he forged after they passed away and getting called out for it.

one i never see pop up often is lance hoyt (now lance archer). another rare one would be both varients of chase stevens. only ones i have are samoa joe (with towel and trophy) kurt angle, and chris sabin (from 2 pack with nash). want to get my hands on most of the better articulated ones, but in good condition, especially jay lethal. there are some good figures, and not so good figuress in the line.

for me, no. they put so much effort into her, and ignored the rest of the division. she has shown she can go, but she's about as safe as goldberg was with bret hart.

Literally any look from 1992-1994. this would be a hard one to pick an attire for for me, if the jacket would end up being cloth goods. i'd think mattel would cheap out on it, so i say the attire from his clash of champions 88 match against ric flair. I think AFA mentioned that if we got surfer Sting the jacket would be done like Bret/Ronda/Nakamura's jackets. that would suck, kinda. becky's jacket will be done like that too.

Exclusive rights aren't really a thing anymore in this day and age. The dude from Super7 told the Major Podcast guys at NYCC that they couldn't do Liger because Storm got the rights. this. and i am 100%sure mattel won't be able to make liger as good as storm. not a chance!

I’ve never understood the point in paying for something in advance that you have absolutely no clue what youre getting ... why not just buy what you want 🤷🏻♂️ I understand where you're coming from here, but the pro wrestling crate I argue is worth the value. Always 2 shirts, authentic autograph, micro brawler and whatever else they throw in there. The 2 shirts alone are worth the price tag, and are exclusive to the box, same as all the other items.
